Terrible new control scheme ruins a classic – Prince of Persia Classic HD Review

Whoever made the decision to move from the four directions and modifier button(for attack, grab a ledge, cautious step, etc.) to this directional joystick or slider plus 3 contextual button control scheme completely destroyed the game. The animation in gameplay is choppy, extra frames change the timing from the original, and swordplay is now simply parry-attack, with no placement strategy. A really disastrous butchering of one of best classics of all time.
